Practical Solutions

Our expertise and professional advice extends to all areas of construction, development and refurbishment. Every aspect of our work is distinguished by a high regard for quality, innovation and economy in achieving our client's commercial objectives.

We believe that maximising a building's appeal requires the bringing together of diverse skills – architecture, design, diligent co-ordination and dynamic project management. Our philosophy is that a combination of these skills creates a successful building – a building for owners, occupiers and visitors alike, achieving its purpose with precision, and flair.

Maximising Potential

Slater Michael LLP evaluates buildings in terms of use and maximum potential, not just as 'bricks and mortar'. We always consider opportunities to add value and if different uses could increase the commercial viability of a scheme.

While building evaluation covers the fundamentals – Building Surveys, Schedules of Dilapidations, Schedules of Condition, Planned Maintenance Programmes, and Building Reinstatement Cost Assessments – we are also able to implement a complete building design strategy. We design new buildings, refurbish existing buildings, and plan the use of space for all office, retail and industrial schemes. In addition, our integrated architectural and building surveying team resolves issues of conservation, planning and interior design.

Financial Sense

We manage every aspect of the contract administration process. The team designs, tenders and administers contracts on all types of commercial projects. These aspects of our service also form part of a larger capability to undertake comprehensive project management and development monitoring, thus efficiently packaging the development and construction process.

Communication
